​​Our team meets regularly for practice sessions, show schooling and also "mash-up" lessons where we switch horses several times to open riders up to the "match-up" challenge. We often travel together, and encourage parental support of riders as they enjoy their sport.

The Briarwood IEA program offers wonderful end-goals, or is a starting point towards other levels of achievement - whichever a rider chooses.

​Briarwood always encourages a true team mentality amongst all of our riders, and the IEA program allows us to compete within a team format.

The objectives of the Interscholastic Equestrian Association are:

-To provide students with organized competitive opportunities.
